My Morewood makeover

Recommended Posts

A while ago I decided to give my Morewood a makeover. Over time, the white frame started to show a few stains and pick up some scratches so it was time for a facelift. At the same time I changed the drivetrain to 2x10 and upgraded another few bits. This is nothing as extravagant as the awesome build Patches did but I still think it looks cool. A big thanks to all the Hubbers that helped with advise, sourcing parts etc.

 

Here is a before pic.

Morewood stripped and redone the powder coating.

I did a DIY on the fork.

Silly question and forgive me if it's been covered elsewhere. Any benefit of changing your shock around?

 

The bike does look awesome though!

Possibly just easier to reach the pro-pedal lever.

I was thinking that was probably the reason, any performance changes?

Maybe the seals would get less dirt and grit in facing down like that. But the pro pedal lever is definitely easier to get to in that configuration.
